Kiger of Oxford; two sons, Michael Latvala of Oxford and Jack Latvala and his wife, Connie, of Clearwater, Florida; two grandchildren, Christopher Latvala of Clearwater, Florida and Stephanie Latvala Courson and her husband, Jim, of Acworth, Georgia; and two great-grandchildren, Blake and Sydni Courson of Acworth, Georgia.
